Welp Ive decided this is too cool to resale! I havent decided if Ill keep my blue one around as well or sale it. The one thing Ive noticed and love so far is the top screen isnt wobbly......yet. 



 
These are probably the rest of my big pickups for the rest of the year at least.



Very happy to get all of these, although the one was a pretty penny, I had to have it for my Persona collection and before I felt prices went up on it haha

 
My main pick up for the month so far, this about closes off my Wii collection (maybe two or three more titles that I want).  Paid about $5 for both after a $10 and $20 off coupon used (thank you e-rewards), both complete and in great shape.  Dokapon Kingdom is starting to become scarce again, even after the recent reprint.

Well, my Xbox One came in. Unfortunately my Killer Instinct Pin Ultimate Edition is on fuckING BACKORDER even though it was available when I bought it :\

In the mean time, I got this:

You know, I am getting tired of 3-disc Blu-ray cases getting wrecked when I get them in the mail. Doesn't matter how its shipped or if its new or used, 1 out of every 3 cases will be broken. I have never had this problem with DVD cases.
 
Saying that its been a busy month of spending and saving, is an understatement. The BIG one being having to get a new radiator and A/C compressor for my car, due to hitting a coyote on my way home from work. Fortunately having full coverage on my car, saved me for this season of spending.  So here is my list of goodies:

Went to Target on my lunch break yesterday......at 4pm. 3 employees and myself were pretty amazed it was sitting on the shelf still.



 
I went to Walmart 3 hours before the games/consoles went on sale, and the majority of people showed up 30 min before.

(everything but Hitman is for the PS3)

Far Cry 3-$15

Hitman Absolution(xbox 360)-$10

Splinter Cell Blacklist-$25

The Last of Us-$25

Battlefield 4-$25

I also picked up an Xbox One, and I didn't have to wait in line at all(just walked up and got a wristband for it). They had about 20 xbox one's and only 6 ps4's.

Picked this up from a friend for $40.

Mainly wanted to play some of the RPGs I missed like Ys series, Lunar, Tactics and replay LoH:TitS

They're region locked. >.<

From TRU online:

Kind of BS that TRU shipped them loosely in a giant bubble mailer that just barely stays sealed.

From GameStop:

From TRU in-store and Target:

From a local game shop's 3-for-$10 DS sale:

Got a Nook HD for $79 for my dad, a Zelda 3DS XL for $150 from Target, a new Westinghouse 40" 1080p HDTV for $199 from Target, and some other small stuff like a Kinect from Gamestop.

Walmart was a total bust for me. Useless.

Isn't the Metroid DS game a demo version of the real game.
 
"Isn't the Metroid DS game a demo version of the real game." Yeah I noticed that and Tank! Tank! Tank! which I believe is free to play on Wii U eshop now. 

 
Okay, so these haven't actually arrived yet. I commissioned these from Block Sprites. He sent me a picture of them completed...can't wait for them to arrive. I'll post more pictures of them when they get here, but I couldn't resist showing this one now...

Mario in the raccoon suit from SMB3, Master Chief as he appears in Halo 2600, Rayman (2 feet tall!!) from the original game on PS1, and Red from Pokemon Red/Blue.

If you're unsure of what Block Sprites are...allow the great Alphaomegasin to explain...
